This site concentrates on the cultural contrasts of drinking habits around the world. One very useful tool that can be found on this Web site is a comprehensive table of all the countries in the world and there respected drinking and purchasing age for alcohol. Also, there is a table that describes what a standard drink is in each country in comparison to the grams of ethanol. This site would be very useful to researchers because of the comparisons among the countries. A researcher could use the data provided to investigate the correlation between drinking age of the country and other alcohol related issues, such drunk driving, violence, and young adult drinking.

Drink Wise is an Australian based organization that is working to promote a better and more responsible culture of drinking. The organization provides lecture to the Australian community about various high- risk drinking issues. They also undertake research projects to better understand the culture of binge drinking. This site would be very useful to a reporter in Australia to keep updated on alcohol related issues as well as monitor changes and events dealing with alcohol. Other countries could also use this site to compare what organizations in Australian are doing compared to their domestic organizations.
